what do those numbers mean?

[catgeorge]

The smaller the percentage the closer the genetic distance between regions

[Dema]

Fyrom is closer to Kosovo Albanians and Albanians then to Greece for sure.
Especially because 1/4 of Macedonians are ethnic Albanians and in other 3/4 there is also assimilated Albanians.

[Lucas]

It is based on what? Y-DNA frequencies?

North Greece closer to Crete than neighbour FYROM? I don't buy it.

Nothing. Just fuck the brain of the people with BS. The new frontiers of brainwashing.

You should because I1, I2b, R1b, E1b, T, Q, N is almost identicle... that leaves only R1a and J2 skewed.

I have not weighted a haplo to a greater importance than the other maybe I should - I did look for a "match" and calculated differences though. So if the number of matches and frequencies of differential were small they ranked higher.

[Petalpusher]

Frequency of haplogroups are not a genetic distance. You never know the direction of the hg's geneflow, which makes it even worse based on macroclades. With that logic India is close to Poland.

If hg A split into two and go into X people and Y people. What's the relation between X and Y? Possibly none, they just both have an A element.

If I can be bothered and get data with solid data integrity I will use the match function with some tweaks to do this again. But in terms of something non exhaustive thats what I got

[catgeorge]

Meaning I will dissect the most micro of SNP and zone in by micro-region... who can be bothered though...
